Create e-mail via servlet

Hi,

I’m currently implementing a web application which creates certain documents (PDF and DOC) using a servlet and displays them in a browser.

Now mail functionality is to be added as follows: after the document has been created, it is sent to a particular address as an e-mail attachment.

What I want to achieve is that the servlet creates the mail as a mime message in a way that the browser automatedly opens Outlook after it has received the message from the servlet. Unfortunately, for security purposes it is impossible to send the mail directly from the servlet-containes, but the mail must be returned to the client first.

Anyone got any idea???

Thanks, Alex
